Pages

  0-0

Abstract

 Introduction: Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) should be always prepared to deal with the stressful condition of treating patients with serious physical and emotional injuries. Given that EMTs consider safety the first priority, they must pay adequate attention to their own physical well-being and fitness to practice. Objective: The present study was conducted to analyze the fitness of Jordanian EMTs. Method: The present prospective study was conducted to evaluate the well-being of Jordanian paramedics. The survey was designed using Google forms, which were completed by the participants. The data collection tools comprised an already-designed checklist, including items such as age, gender as well as height and weight, which are used for calculating body mass index (BMI). In addition, the presence of chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, renal failure and cardiorespiratory diseases as well as the history of surgeries and disabilities were investigated. The participants were also asked about their smoking status and other Health-related Habits. Results: Out of 115 surveys conducted, 7 were discarded owing to loss of information or making completion mistakes. Out of the remaining 108 respondents, 82 (75. 9%) were male and below 10% were over the age of 30 years. BMI was over 25 in 40. 7% of the respondents, and only 4 (3. 7%) had chronic diseases. Moreover, 46 (42. 6%) respondents were smokers, and only 30 (27. 8%) performed regular exercise. Conclusion: The present findings suggest Health problems in a small percentage of the EMTs, potentially due to the appropriate support provided by the employers or university authorities in this regard. The major Health problem was Overweight and unHealthy lifestyle, including smoking and not doing regular exercise.
